Two halloween looks for kids with Snazaroo!

I LOVE Halloween. It's one of my favourite holidays and I think it's something that's even more exciting when you have kids. As mine are currently *almost* 5 and *almost* one (how has that gone so fast?) but we try and decorate in our home on the day and have spooky games and treats in the evening.

Last year we took part in a bike ride around our local park where they had set up all sorts of fun and spooky activities like making lanterns and toffee apples. All the parents had to dress up too whilst riding around and Wilf and Tom went together and had a blast! I was pretty much 9 months pregnant at the time so sat it out (although I did think of dressing up as a pumpkin considering I was the shape as one) which is why I'm even more excited about Halloween this year!

Dress up has always been a favourite of mine since I was a child and Wilf is as much of a fan as I was. Like most kids he loves getting his face painted and I'm super excited to be working with Snazaroo in this post to create two Halloween looks with Wilf in the videos below. We had so much fun making them although anyone with a 4-and-a-bit year old will know they can say the silliest things, the amount of times I had to cut out 'poo poo' jokes oh my gosh! ;)

The first look we went for was a skeleton and the second was a pumpkin. We've actually used these face paints already over the years so it felt like the perfect fit to partner up on this activity. They really are brilliant and come in all sort of great shades (I just picked up a set of their sparkle paint too!). I find Snazaroo face paints to be really brilliant to apply and long wearing too. I used a mixture of the sponges that come with the kits as well as their face paint brushes to create the looks below.

As you can tell I'm no make up artist but I think I did pretty well and Wilf seemed to love it. I can't wait for the day itself now! What are your plans for Halloween? Will you be having fun with face paints like us?
